Wanted: Ceasation of tampering...

I have had a certain amount of damage and lock tampering at our lock up. Although they haven't got in, I have had to call in the locksmiths a number of times.

Now, what I am looking for is a battery powered camera that is weatherproof, infrared, easy to conceal and attach.... e.g. to a tree.

Any suggestions?

Try a google search for 'GSM Camera'. There's a few.

Dual Band GSM Security Camera with Nightvision + Motion Detection

for example.

Might have to grab one myself at that price and leave it overlooking the boats

I would bet this sign would do more than a hidden camera to deter theft.

Peter this looks good and we tried it at stables, but you have to assume these low lifes have the ability to read English as it is suggested many are from overseas. You need a real deterent to stop most organised thieves. If I could see a pattern emerging I would be on site waiting with cameras etc

If there was a pattern, I'd be down there with a sniper suit and a high powered paintball rifle with frozen rounds...

That'll learn um.

Someone that is causing damage and not getting into the place I would not call organized.

Really a hidden camera is NOT going to deter anyone. What you can't see...well you can't see. Might work for prosecution, but what you really want is for them to walk away in the first place and go somewhere else.

Okay I would say this fake camera would do more than a hidden camera.

It's more likely they'll nick the fake camera

You can get a motion sensitive camera that works with infra red lighting from most camping / hunting stores that can be hidden in surrounding foliage or in the eves of the building fairly cheaply.
It's not to get a image of their faces, usually covered and hard to match, but to get number plates which can be traced.
